Southern Lakes

The Southern Lakes region makes up the southwest corner of New Zealand’s South Island and includes some of the most stunning landscape in the country. New Zealand’s most popular tourist attraction, Milford Sound, is located here in Fiordland.

Largely uninhabited, the region is an internationally recognised destination for tramping, and a number of multi-day trails will show you untamed New Zealand at its best. Many visitors skip the trails however, and opt to see the sights from the water. Boat tours leave Milford Sound several times a day.
